Radon levels are higher in spaces closer to the ground. It is not uncommon for high levels of radioactive gas on your first floor. Additionally, radon can be present in high amounts in basements and crawlspaces. As a result, you need to focus on these spaces to...
Radon is responsible for several lung cancer deaths in the US. It is the number one cause for lung cancer in people who don’t smoke, according to the EPA. The radioactive gas ranks second after smoking as the cause of lung cancer. Radon is present in most...
As per Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), radon is an invisible and odorless radioactive gas. It may lead to cancer due to the high level of exposure for a long time. This gas forms by the breakdown of the underground thorium and uranium. Radon then...
Our living conditions have a big impact on our health. You are more likely to fall ill if your home is humid, unhygienic, or contains radioactive gasses. Worst of all, you can develop serious diseases if you aren’t careful. Radon is one of the most...
When it comes to radon, there is no acceptable level. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has some recommendations. You need to fix your home if radon levels are above 4 picoCuries per litre of air (pCi/L). Do you live in an affected zone? Or is your house...
Radon is one gas that can cause a lot of damage because it is hard to detect. Certified professionals can only detect it. The mitigation process can also become cumbersome if radon remains undetected for long. It is even scarier that you can not detect radon in your...
Daniel Brodsky and his partner did a wonderful job finding a good spot to place the fan and installing it in record time. 10 points!

Tommy is a consummate professional, a straight shooter, and an excellent communicator. He and his team (Austin did a lot of the on-the-ground work) were extremely quick, clean, and efficient in the install, solving some small engineering challenges on the fly. I came to Tommy with a bunch of questions about the systems they use and the results we could expect (our house in Annapolis was below the EPA limit prior to mitigation, but we hoped to get lower) and he was clear, deliberative, and in no way trying to sell me something as he taught me bits of his trade.
I will recommend Atlantic Radon to anyone in the area in need of a radon test, radon mitigation, or sump-pump repair and maintenance, and would trust them in any project they were involved in. Tommy, who has experience doing home inspection, was overall really knowledgeable and helpful, and connected us with local contractors for other projects before we move in. I really couldn't have been more pleased.

I called Atlantic Radon after discovering via my own testing that my levels were higher than they should be (~12). Tommy was extremely professional and knowledgeable about my area and was very quick to get me on the schedule. Dan was punctual for our appointment and got our job done very quickly. He also explained everything he did in great detail and taught me a lot about this deadly invisible gas. We just got our results after abatement and are now at .4! Doesn’t get better than that. This company has it all: Professionalism, Knowledge, Punctuality and Affordability. I’ve been recommending to all of my neighbors to check their levels and reach out to Atlantic Radon if they run into the same situation I did. Extremely grateful for this All Star team. Thank you!
